However, Gigabyte can still make some improvements when it comes to the layout. NB During the course of our review, we never felt the need to connect an external keyboard – this does not happen very often. Another strong point is the very bright and even backlight, which can be customised in accordance with the user’s preferences (colours, modes, etc.). All the keys are very well-sized, whether they be the typewriter keys or the function keys or the numeric keys. The switches from Omron have an extremely crisp, clear and well-defined actuation point that leaves the rest of the competition in the dust. It is no wonder that typing on it is much more pleasant than on conventional keyboards. Gigabyte is especially proud of the mechanical keyboard. Smudges such as fingerprints are not very visible. Thanks to a relatively bright colour palette (the display lid and the upper side of the chassis are greyish in colour) users will not have to constantly wipe the device clean.
The build quality is on a satisfactory level as well. Moreover, the display lid is also extremely rigid, which is not something we can say about most other laptops. Even when a lot of pressure is applied to the chassis it does not bend in. The metal surfaces feel nice to the touch and are very rigid. According to Gigabyte, the chassis has been machined from a block of aluminium using CNC technology. In terms of quality, the 17-incher leaves a very good impression. Thanks to a bezel-less design, the chassis does not look too cumbersome. With a height of 2.6 cm (1.02 in) and a weight of 2.7 kg (5.95 lbs), the Aorus 17G finds its place in the area between classical desktop replacements and the representatives of the thin-&-light category.
